Right, but that’s a lot more work. Costs them, time and effort and processing costs and power.
Its not sustainable or scalable at that form factor
Some credit cards offer 2% cash back… (Not points) So it’s hard to give that up when you get 2% off for just about every dollar you spend. Why wouldn’t you put every dollar on card you would normally spend.
This doesn’t work well if you are paying interest…
If you’re fiscally savvy and don’t overspend and can pay your balance in full every month and are not paying interest, this is a strong vote for choosing over cash.
However, without that…I see no benefit and would use more cash for all reasons in this thread.
Thanks for clarifying, I misunderstood the question.
The content on YouTube is golden and likely cannot be replaced, created elsewhere.
Hence, stripping the junk is what makes it palatable for me.

I flew Icelandic air recently and they had A 4 minute long ad playing with no way to skip or mute that had to play before the entertainment system was available. It played a soon as you turned it on!
I had to unplug and look away for 4+ minutes
I’m impressed. Thank you. Class act
Hey there!, No need to take it personally. Thanks for the post, I happen to know what navidrome is and found this post helpful.
A tag would be helpful for others, not required but I think the feedback came from a good place.
Thinking the same thing. WTF
+1 for Podverse
Yes but they cannot determine it isn’t audio of me singing in my own shower
Forsure, but if you still had the download and went to the sites official page today and could check if it matches to alleviate fear you downloaded a fake version etc.
Did you get the app from trusted source? Did you check the md5 / sha512 hash after downloading to ensure no tamper?
That would freak me out also…
Same… a bit of screen scrolling to get what I need but did the trick in a pinch!
Grayjay is awesome! (Alternative to YouTube)
Yeah I hear you on that.
Maybe just find a spot to start a conversation and see what comes of it. Maybe list a couple recent projects and what you want to do next. See what other folks are working on and If enough interest.
I’m currently working on some VLAN segmentation for IOT and have several IOT things blocked from accessing the Internet (like my network printer and some smart lights) (I run openHAB for home automation locally) , I also have some DNS blocking.
I have some USB logic analyzers and want to play with sigroc but haven’t got around to that. Also built an oscilloscope and want to learn to use it more (might make a signal generator so I can use some known frequencies and such) to ensure the oscilloscope is dialed in.
I had to look that up. So ya, I understand your problem a bit better. Wish I could offer some solutions.
For anyone interested…
“Starlink uses Carrier-Grade NAT (CGNAT) to avoid the need for 1,000s of IPv4 addresses, which can be a problem for some users due to how they are using Starlink. However, some VPN services like PureVPN can be used to bypass CGNAT restrictions on Port Forwarding.1 CGNAT prevents direct access to the Starlink antenna from the internet, making setting up a VPN or hosting services challenging. There is no direct public IP address assigned to the Starlink antenna, which hinders traditional methods of setting up a VPN server or hosting services like port forwarding and DMZ access”
I will first admit that I am quite ignorant to Home Assistant.
I am a happy openHAB user for 5+ years. Have you considered switching to see if you like it?
I tried Home Assistant once or twice but never felt comfortable enough to switch.
I run stuff locally and can connect over VPN to my home and operate as if I am inside the home. I have not looked into these other cloudflare tunnels or tail scale as I don’t think it would provide any advantage to my current setup.
OpenVPN server running on my router does the trick.
Why not disable ipv6 for local lan?
I disable It on everything for next decade until it’s mainstream.
